[La la Riff - C9 C C9 C C9 C -
G (3x003x) G6 (3x0030) G6 G G6 G - F(at1) F(at5)][Bridge]Can you imagine no
[C] love, pride, deep-fried chicken
Your
[G] best friend always sticking
[F] up for you,
even when I know you're wrong
Can you imagine no
[C] first dance, freeze dried
romance
[G] five-hour phone conversation 
(can just stay on Bb until F to make simpler)
The
[Bb/D] best soy
[x787xx] latte that you
[Bb] ever had,
[Bbsus2] and
[F] me (drums stop)
[Chorus 3][G] Tell me did the wind sweep you off your
[D] feet
Did you finally get the chance to
[F] dance along the light of day
[C(stop)] And head back toward the Milky Way

[G] Tell me did you sail across the
[D] sun
Did you make it to the Milky
[F] Way to see the lights all faded
[C] And that heaven is overrated
[G] Tell me, did you fall from a shooting
[D] star
One without a permanent
[Dm] scar
And did you miss me while you were
[F] looking for yourself (snare stop)
[Outro] - La la bit - is C9 to C, then G (with 3 on B string)
to open E at top - just take fingers off top strings
[C] na na na na na na
[G] na na na na na na
[F] na-na-na-na
And did you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day
[C] na na na na na na
[G] na na na na na na
And did you
[F] fall from a shooting star, fall from a shooting star
[C] na na na na na na
[G] na na na na na na
(can just stay on Bb to make easier)
And are ya
[Bb/D] lonely
[x787xx] looking
[Bb] for your self
[Bbsus2] out
[F] there
